OP –
Tell you what, move to New Orleans for a few years and drink the tap water. We’ll see what you think of bottled water then.
The first week I bought my house, I received a letter from the local water company stating it was required by the EPA to provide notice to all residents of a “high fecal content” in the tap water. Luckily the water department assured me that this is the same water its residents have been consuming for years.
Good times. Thank God I got the out of that hole.
